social scientist

I wanted to be an archaeologist because I like digging for information of the past and actually my favourite subject is history. It's a lot of fun reading and finding things that you never knew about till now.

I found archaeologist an interesting job because you don't only flip through pages about history but you also dig for history to actually study the past.  I like to travel around the globe and so do archaeologist, they travel around the globe to study about the people like who lives there and how they lived. I love digging for things in the ground i always thought that if I dig deep enough i might be able to find dinosaur bones but really its hard to do, but I like dinosaurs. I like to actually buy this digging kit were it comes with all these strange tools that archaeologist use to dig for bones or fossils.

 Another reason on why I chose archaeologist is because you get to see things from the past and you can compare it to now like in the Romans the mad really old coins and now we have improved ones, and their clothing and lifestyle and all different kinds of objects and things. For example in Egypt when a royal family dies they prepare the things he/she needs for the after life and they prepare a tomb and build a pyramid for them, and now archaeologist create a site and starts digging and they are able to discover a lot of wonderful facts that was never uncover for many years and I want to do that as my dream job because it's cool to just mummified people resting with their stuff in the underworld.

   My last reason is I think that being an archaeologist is a lot more fun as a dream job because you get to dig and find bones and then you get to connect the bones together to form the shape of a human or if you find  a vase and it's all broken up you can think of it as a puzzle. I would say that this is a great job for me because I like digging, doing puzzles, learning about history and traveling.

Hi I'm Michelle

Hi my name is Michelle and I am from Bangkok, Thailand and Antwerp, Belgium. My birthday is January 29 and I'm an Aquarius.  I am studying at ISKL middle school in KL, Malaysia. I live with my parents and my pet fighting fish, Thunder and Lightning.


My main hobby is reading but sometimes I would just sit at my desk and start making the creation that pops up in my head. When the holidays come I get really excited because I love travelling and the countries  I have visited are the U.S (Louisiana and Texas), France, Belgium (Antwerp and Brussels), Croatia(I live 3years in Split), Italy( Venice),  Holland( where my auntie lives), China (I lived and went to school for 1 year in Shanghai), Thailand (everywhere), Malaysia  (KL, Penang, Lumut, Miri), Singapore, Laos, and S.Korea (Ulsan where I was born, Chinhae and Okpo where I went for school for 3 years).


So far on my Summer holidays I read 2 books: Summer Camp Secrets which is about two friends going to summer camp together and they get all mad at each other, while the other book is Nancy Drew, whom most people know she is a detective who solves crimes and mysteries. My favourite movie that I watched over the holiday is "How to Train Your Dragon" which is about a vikking boy named Hiccup who caught a dragon named Night Fury, aka Toothless. Later on he began to train it.

My goal is to improve my writing skill, because I'm not that good yet. I am improving though! My social goal is to use my time wisely, which normally never happens at home but I'm trying. I think my best class so far is maybe math or science or both, but I do like solving math problems and doing fun experiments in scienceclass.I don't have a least favourite class, unless you count Remembering your Locker Combination as a class.




There is one more memorable holiday which is the most favourite one in my whole life, and that was taking a bus trip to Singapore Universal Studio. I went on all the rides and had so much fun there going to the stores and taking pictures with Frankenstein, Betty Boop, Kung Fu Panda and with Alex the lion.

If I were to describe myself I would say: Funny, Cheerful, Friendly,and a little bit shy.
